Abstract
|
|
|
|
With technology facilitating ever closer relationships between economies, it is essential that the global issues that are of concern to the OECD, its member states and non-member economies are being addressed in close-co-operation. The increasingly important economies of Asia already play a vital role in global co-operation and it this therefore timely, perhaps even visionary, that the Korean authorities have taken the initiative to establish the Joint OECD/Korea Regional Centre on Health and Social Policy in Seoul (RCSP). Through sharing of expertise, best practices, and general policy experiences the RCSP intends to take a significant contribution in the Health and Social policy area where authorities face considerable challenges posed by ageing populations, the prevalence of poverty and the weakening of traditional family ties.
